To Mrs. Cude and Weldon and family,
My deepest sympathy to you all in your loss of Mark.
I was priviledged to know Mark and count him as my friend. Although I didn't see Mark often, it was as if I had seen him frequently, as he was a friend without bounds. The girls are fortunate to have you all to surround them with love and affection.

To Mrs. Cude, Weldon and your families - I was so shocked and saddened by this news. It was an honor to have known Mark, he was a wonderful friend. This is such a loss for the Pleasanton community as well. Mark was a rare and unique person in that he always thought of others before himself. He was honest and fair; with a quick wit and funny stories to share. I also remember Mark as being a very proud Uncle of his nieces. God bless Mark's daughters, Emily and Chloe, they had such a great Dad.
